I won't read the magazine again, not even if the choice is that or Knitting World at my dentists office.

Rolling Stone has had controversial covers for a long, long time. What took you so long to stop?

No, it isn't hard to prove the PC are in fact insane.

Scroll down to the essay in:

"Make no mistake about it: We are At War now

If this isn't the essay that appeared in RS it's awfully close.

R.I.P. Hunter S....gonzo is gone

If anything, this is a publicity grab to boost sales....which isn't a political decision.

Can we please not go into poo throwing monkey mode and just discuss this heinous decision?

I second that.

It's too bad FOX News is the only news that isn't pandering to the feds and the sicko PC. if you want real news go to Fox If you just are looking for the best hack of the day go MSNBC. The MSNBC is seriously funny.

Sadly, it's hardly limited to FOX.

It is kind of amusing seeing the righties who normally hold the bottom line and anything done to enhance it as sacrosanct whining about Rolling Stone. I guess they just can't take the idea that damn hippie newspaper with the Rock 'n Roll name making $$$.

I've heard the following month they're going to have Snowden on the cover and a story of how he was a deprived child from birth.
